ALOHA CATHY COLE!
We are saying "tootle-loo" to our great friend and family member, Cathy Cole! Cathy will be moving to Hawaii this weekend...

Cathy joined the gang at Writer Wednesday since we began -- she came in with her Ukulele and her determination to play it -- plus her big beautiful smile! Her energy is so pure and giving...we all fell in love with her! Soon, she was writing songs and playing many many songs on her Uke! Cathy has been such an inspiration for all artists everywhere! We love your creative soul, and your faith in "smiling" away the dull moments, negative moments, and just ENJOYING LIFE!

Cathy wrote the theme song for Writer Wednesday at Bob's Espresso Bar!!!

I am going to miss Cathy tremendously, but I know we will see her again as a GUEST PERFORMER! Sending lots of love and hugs to Miss Cathy Cole! :)
 --  Jessica & Your family at Bob's!

Such a powerful message from a SURVIVOR with such a beautiful spirit!

Cathy, Thank you for all that you've given us, and the inspirations you've shared! We are going to have to go back to u-streaming the show just for Cathy because she is that loved!


speaking of the love... 

the Los Angeles Poet Society, driver behind Writer Wednesday, want to award E. Cathy Cole with the

Spirit of Life 
Award!!!

The Spirit of Life Award (SOL), is presented to a member of the Los Angeles community for their dedication to their creativity, and for being a driving force within their communities, serving spoonfuls of inspiration and camaraderie through art. 

Since her journey led her to Bob's for Writer Wednesday, Cathy has shown us her sorrows and dreams, and we've watched her transform that sorrow into beauty, and her dreams become concrete, through the vehicle of art and her determination. Each week, Cathy continued to learn her Ukulele, and soon master it to be able to write her own music! 

She has since created the theme song for Writer Wednesday at Bob's Espresso Bar, tap danced and sang, and featured for the Salon @ NoHo, and Writer Wednesday! Cathy's energy also led her to volunteer with the Los Angeles Poet Society for the 1st Annual Lit Crawl in LA, North Hollywood! 

She is a true inspiration and shares her love of the arts and zest for life with all of us! We are so proud of who she is and blessed to be a part of her life!  


Thank you, Cathy! It's an honor to give you this award, and name it for you all the years to come! Lots of love to you always!
- Jessica M. Wilson
Los Angeles Poet Society, Founder/President

In Honor of Mother Earth

Happy Earth Month!  Right now, we see the blossoms opening, the vines ripening -- the sweet smell of Spring is here! Congratulations to everyone for making it out of the darkness, in this frigid air... the dew of the damp Earth has sprouted many blessings.  Rake up the gentle soil and bring her into your circle. Let the abundance flow into your circle; enjoy the fragrance of your harvest. I wanted to offer up this powerful song; Madre Tierra , by Maya Jupiter. Her message is steady and daring to be spoken into the ears of all who dwell on and know Mother Earth.  Speak righteously, and take care. ~ Jessica ~

When everyone was quarantined, I felt like

  "When everyone was quarantined, I felt like..."           I was caged,  my cord cut,            the outside was in,       and I  wasn’t ready for that. I felt like I was out of time                 – no way to re-plan my life,  no way to be by anyone’s side. I like mapping the scene,     feel heat amongst a crowd,  and now, to stay away from them,  I have to hide. Close myself off  my nature,  to enjoy parties  dancing, all the things               feel more alive…  When that door shut, a hurricane hit. JMWC 9/22/20 from class, Panorama High School, 2020

In Loving Memory of Anthony St. Jude Greene

My best friend died Sunday, July 24, 2011. Best and oldest friend...a brother and someone connected to my soul throughout life. It's not entirely real to me...we'd always talk, plan trips to see each other. This is going to be hard. He struggled a lot throughout his life; his weight problem, respiratory issues, sensitivity in general as he got older and heavier. It's a damn shame. He was a very strong man. Very strong! He'd fight off death for years. :) He'd joke about it a lot...saying that death is gonna have to fight harder because he's not giving up. His heart gave out, his body had enough trauma. He just had to let go, we have to acknowledge that he lived hard, fought well, died nobly. We'd joke about our heritage...we had much of the same mix of mutt in us, which was quite unique. He was also the son of many many vikings! Norsemen were tough, full of valor and grit, arghhhhhhh! Those medieval times men had nothing on Anthony Greene. :) Noth...
